Summary Generated by Built In

Metaview is an AI company focused on recruiting. We build AI agents that help world-class companies hire with radically more speed and precision. We automate the toil, and augment the human for companies like Brex, Affirm, Deel, ElevenLabs, and Airtable.

Founded by Siadhal and Shahriar after their experiences scaling Uber and Palantir, we've raised over $50m from top-tier investors. Most recently, Google Ventures led our series B. We're growing 5x YoY, our customers are raving fans of the product, and our story has been covered in Fortune, Forbes, TechCrunch, and The Times.

It's still day 0: Now is the time to re-engineer how work gets done with AI at the core, and our toughest challenges still lie ahead. We're looking for people seeking the hardest, most fulfilling work of their lives.

How we work

Four principles guide us:

  • Velocity. Optimize for rate of learning. Take action, get feedback, get better.

  • Hospitality. Sweat the experience. Delight customers, candidates and colleagues, even when it’s inconvenient.

  • Transparency. Public unless private. Share context openly within the company so people and agents can take initiative.

  • End-to-end. Deliver outcomes, not tasks. Step beyond your job description and see the work through.

The role

We're bringing accounting in-house for the first time. Collections, AP, and reconciling across our systems have all been running without a single owner, and that gap is exactly where you'll make your mark early. AI is also rewriting how accounting functions operate, and you'd be building our version of that as we scale, a modern, best-in-class finance function, not a legacy one with AI bolted on. This is a hands-on role reporting directly to the Head of Finance, with full ownership of the day-to-day money: collections, AP, payroll, bookkeeping, and month-end close across our US and UK entities.

We're looking for someone qualified or well on the way who wants real ownership from day one. This is a genuine growth path - you'll take on more of our technical accounting, compliance, and treasury work as you prove yourself. And we want someone who'd rather build the process than inherit one.

Key ownership areas:

  • Own collections and AP, the single point of contact for customers and vendors.

  • Own bookkeeping, reconciliations, and month-end close across our US and UK entities.

  • Own payroll and sales commissions, working directly with Sales and RevOps.

  • Help select and implement the tools behind our finance stack, and keep spend under control.

  • Build AI-driven automation into reconciliations, reporting, and close.

What you bring

  • Qualified, ideally with strong in-house experience (ACA, ACCA, CPA, or equivalent).

  • You take a process and own it - you'd rather deliver finished work than ask permission at every step.

  • You find building the playbook appealing.

  • You double-check everything and usually catch what others miss.

  • You're excited to use AI to make accounting work faster and more accurate, not just to use the tools you're handed.

  • Bonus: exposure to multi-entity or cross-border (US/UK) accounting.

What we offer

  • The best co-workers you'll ever have, in an environment that fosters cohesion, collaboration, and performance.

  • Supreme rate-of-learning as we re-orient how the world works with AI.

  • High compensation, through cash and equity.

  • All the benefits you'd expect and more.

Skills Required

  • ACA, ACCA, CPA, or equivalent accounting qualification
  • Strong in-house accounting experience
  • Ability to independently own accounting processes and deliver completed work
  • Strong attention to detail and accuracy
  • Interest in using AI to improve accounting speed and accuracy
  • Multi-entity or cross-border US/UK accounting experience

Metaview Compensation & Benefits Highlights

The following summarizes recurring compensation and benefits themes identified from responses generated by popular LLMs to common candidate questions about Metaview and has not been reviewed or approved by Metaview.

  • Healthcare Strength Private medical insurance via a named provider is highlighted for UK/EU hires, indicating robust health coverage in those markets. Feedback suggests this is a notable plus for a growth-stage startup.
  • Leave & Time Off Breadth A take-what-you-need PTO policy is promoted alongside EU-remote flexibility. Feedback suggests this provides generous latitude for time away.
  • Equity Value & Accessibility Equity grants are presented as a meaningful part of offers, making ownership a core component of rewards. Feedback suggests this aligns with packages typical of companies at this stage.
